US Army survival manual provides you advice on how to swim in burning oil.
If you are in an area where surface oil is burning--
Discard your shoes and buoyant life preserver.
Note: If you have an uninflated life preserver, keep it.
Cover your nose, mouth, and eyes and quickly go underwater.
Swim underwater as far as possible before surfacing to breathe.
Before surfacing to breathe and while still underwater, use your hands to push burning fluid away from the area where you wish to surface. Once an area is clear of burning liquid, you can surface and take a few breaths. Try to face downwind before
inhaling.
Submerge feet first and continue as above until clear of the flames.
If you are in oil-covered water that is free of fire, hold your head high to keep the oil out of your eyes. Attach your life preserver to your wrist and then use it as a raft
I want to try it out, but which swimsuits are good for non-op
male-to-female transsexuals if I want to be safe? Where we are going to
burn some oil on the sea?
